Sega CS1 or Sega Consumer Research and Development Department #1 was a division within Sega of Japan. Previously known as R&D2 in the eighties, it was the first department established specifically to produce console games.

This page compiles all games made by staff to have confirmed programmers, planners and designers working on Sega games during the eighties until the mid nineties. As well as games that have executive management by Mamoru Shigeta, Yoji Ishii, Makoto Oshitani, Koichi Nagata and Noriyoshi Ohba who have frequently collaborated during the nineties. By April 1996, Noriyoshi Ohba established his own department, CS2.

Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic The Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic CD are exepmt on this list due to the "Sonic Team presents..." on the Japanese packing, as well as seperate managing producers Shinobu Toyoda and Masaharu Yoshii. Like Ohba, Yuji Naka opened his own division as Sonic Team, with the corporate name of CS3.

CS1 itself became Sega Software #6 (in 2000 Smilebit) in May 1998.
